The song "Explosions", by Ellie Goulding shows how sometimes love can be a scary thing, and how it can bring pain that can feel very intense and real. The lyrics from the chorus are probably the most meaningful lyrics in the song.“Explosions, on the day you wake up needing somebody, and you’ve learned, it’s ok to be afraid. But it will never be the same.” These “explosions” are referring to an awakening, when whoever broke her heart realizes that they cannot live without her. Finally then the person will realize that whatever caused him to run away during the relationship wasn't worth ending things over. Throughout this entire song one can learn that in some cases, love can be a very selfish thing and can often seem unclear. “Explosions” depicts love in a negative way. When she sings this song she is reflecting on the memory of an old relationship that she had, where she gave everything to someone who left her when things got to real for them to handle.
